Gemini in Chrome can summarize pages and compare information across tabs
Google’s Gemini assistant can be used inside Chrome on desktop through a feature called Ask Gemini.
It opens in a side panel, so users can ask questions without leaving the page they are viewing.
Gemini can summarize a page or explain a topic in simpler terms.
Users can also let it work across up to 10 recent open tabs, which can help connect information during research or trip planning.
This brings the assistant closer to the browser and to Google Workspace apps such as Gmail, Drive, Docs and Calendar.
